SIGNATURE_SHORT_DENSE, > I've never seen on spam. You misunderstand. This is the spamassassin I run locally on my incoming debian mail. These mails do have X-Loop and X-Mailinglist headers, and do have a short, dense signature (that is added by the list software). These things cause a signifacantly _negative_ score, cause spam from debian lists, that would normally be caught, be accepted as non-spam. Setting the above scores to 0, solves that problem. -- Kind regards, +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | Bas Zoetekouw | Het belangrijkste gereedschap| |--------------------------------| van de theoretisch fysicus | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | is de prullenbak. | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | J.J.
